Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Sacred Rituals and Humane Death critically analyzes the civilizing nature of the underlying fundamental concept of humaneness in contemporary discourses around modern meat and animal ethics. As religious methods of animal slaughter, such as the halal method in Islam, as well as the practice of religious animal sacrifice, are sometimes categorized as barbaric in recent debates, the civilizing narrative of progress leads supposedly to more humane adaptation of methods and practices of animal curation and slaughter. This volume argues that the shift toward modern meat does not constitute a shift toward less pain and suffering as purported by supporters of contemporary methods, particularly mass agriculture. Rather, it is a shift in what is considered as acceptable versus unacceptable pain and suffering. In this work, the author analyzes the concealment and distancing that characterize modern meat production, uncovering the acceptable pain and suffering involved in these procedures heralded as progress and advocating for a retrieval of earlier, tradition-bound practices rooted in religious, cultural, and ethical respect of animals and their important and sacred roles in sacrifice. Sacred Rituals and Humane Death is a critical analysis of the religious and ethical narratives around modern practices of meat production and killing. The volume questions the focus on the humaneness of modern methods of animal slaughter and argues for reconsidering ancient religious practices of animal slaughter and sacrifice.
